Least not this toxic - Everton FC


daored

Recommended Posts

Everton's board of directors have been told to stay away from their Premier League game with Southampton due to a "real and credible threat to their safety and security", the club have said.

Fans are understood to be planning a protest at Goodison Park in the wake of last week's embarrassing 4-1 home defeat to Brighton.

The club said chairman Bill Kenwright, chief executive Denise Barrett-Baxendale, chief finance and strategy officer Grant Ingles and non-executive director Graeme Sharp will "reluctantly" stay away on the advice of security advisors.

Will all be forgotten very quickly if they go down 

 

He took the club when nobody else would come forward, put his own limited funds in to bring them a half decent decade when they could have sunk to the depths of Sunderland.

I would hope that people would respect that.

Noel Gallagher said in the late nineties that he wouldn't put money into Man City because first they love you and then they hate you.

Well that's what's happened at Everton.

True, but ultimately they've not progressed under his tenure especially if they do get relegated

I've wanted Everton to come down for years.

One of the worst away sections I've been in recently makes the upper tier at Villa look like Wembley

The Liverpool echo are reporting that Chief executive Denise Barrett-Baxendale was reportedly put in a headlock after the defeat on the way to her car. 

Seriously crossed the line if true

That is horrendous behaviour, football is a game. No matter how bad it is that behaviour is utterly disgusting

Hope they check CCTV and lock them up and make an example of them

Britain's angriest fans, most angry/disillusioned fans. Remember, Joey Barton is an Evertonian, so these blokes start out pretty angry from before getting school, then just go along getting angrier and angrier. 

Its what happens when they're the peoples club of the city...

Fivethirtyeight have them as favourites to go down. 62% chance of relegation. Surely we go to Goodison next season.

We have to make sure we stay up, then I will look forward to that trip.
I have a few Everton mates and I want to get up there before they move anyway.

TBF some context .

They have spent more than almost anyone in the Prem bar the top 3/4 over 10 years. They have nothing to show for it and their rivals have started to look like contenders. Imagine our fanbase in that position, we would be every bit as toxic.

One of the things I hate when I hear pundits on tv who have no clue ,

oh how great are the fans are blah blah blah , Everton fans are horrid very opinionated and typical scouse blaggers , never been to Goodison so have no experience of them at home games but remember them at the gate a few times , also had the misfortune of being on a train down from the north to London a few months back , there were a fair few of them and all they did was  snort Charlie openly in the carriage and abuse everybody else in the carriage including my mrs when she went to get something to eat / drink luckily for me I was stopped from confronting a couple of them by a lad sat opposite us as I would have no doubt come unstuck ( far to many of them ) , 

also Newcastle fans ( nothing like Everton fans ) but wasn’t st James park toxic a couple of years ago now there best fans in the world .

It's been a long time since City and I visited Goodison. I can tell you its a lot more intimidating than Anfield.

Poor old Bill Kenwright after all he's done for Everton over the years.

People have very short memories.

What’s he done? The bloke hasn’t put a penny into the club. He got lucky with Moyes, who pretty much ran the club for him. Wouldn’t sell up until he found a buyer who would keep him in on the board (includes the Man City owners).

Never been to Goodison so really want them to come down so we get to play there before it gets knocked down. 

Like I said above it makes villa's top tier look like Wembley, it's an awful run down out of date ground

FFS! That’s crazy! 
 

Frank Lampard is not very good and the players he has aren’t either. 
 

Every season they squeeze by, their luck will run out eventually I’m sure!

Biased as being an Everton fan as well as City (Please no one start on can’t support 2 teams) but Goodison may not be the best stadium in the world but my does it have a lot of character and history.

Wrong to run it down as being a dump.

Last season I went to the Everton v Chelsea fixture at goodison with a friend who's been a season ticket holder for years. Admittedly the whole ground was up for it that day and the atmosphere was incredible but the one thing that stands out is how volatile they are infact I remember thinking this is like a powder keg just waiting to explode. There's one thing for sure there's definitely no friendly welcome for away fans., it's a nasty place in a horrible area.

15 points in the first half of this season.

So they need 22 - 25 in the second half in order to get to the 37 - 40 points normally needed for safety (they stayed up with 39 last season). 

It's a big ask, a big upturn in results needed. Newcastle managed it in the season they were bought, but that was with investment and signings. 

Are Everton going to be signing the type of players needed to do this? I can't see much sign of it happening. Maybe a new manager could be what they need, but again, it's a big ask to go, overnight, from 0.79 points per game to 1.2.

They're next games are West Ham away, Arsenal at home, and then the Merseyside derby. Anything less than 4 points from those three games and they are in real trouble.

Been coming for years. Been to Goodison Park a few times and astounded at the naive and blinkered entitlement of the fans there.

Footballing knowledge and IQ in that lot is low, trust me. Living in the shadows of bigger neighbours for so long removes all common sense and rationale. Any of us unfortunate enough to have to share space and life with Rovers followers will know that. Same thing up there but with added Scouse bonkers-mindset.

Just check my last post SMTM and I actually admit to supporting 3 teams, City ( always my no 1 team as followed since I was 8 ? Sheff Wed as lived there in my teens and Torquay United, as I love Torquay and Paignton. You could also chuck in Hamilton Academicals as I always loved the name !!

Liverpool seems to have turned into a cesspit of organised crime over the last 20-30 years . Like a mini London . Lots of gun & knife problems . I used to have a lot of respect for both clubs but a lot of both fan bases are vermin 

Small beer in the grand scheme, but when I went to Merseyside for a weekend with friends which encompassed some drinking in Liverpool on the Saturday night, was the first time I'd seen bouncers outside a Burger King! ?

Around October 2013 this was.

The point is what player on the outside looking in would want to play for that lot? A pretty desperate one I would have thought. The ones who are currently there like Mina and Gordon who were in the middle of that lot yesterday were probably discussing next moves with their families today and I would imagine the outcome would have been "get on the phone to your bloody agent tomorrow".

Joey was probably visiting home.

I thought it odd that the team arrived by coach but were able to leave in their own cars

It was pretty clear what was going to happen after the game
